Over 100 sprint car drivers from around the nation, and Australia, New Zealand, and Canada will try to put their name alongside the likes of Kinser, Swindell, Wolfgang, and Lasoski as Knoxville Nationals Champion.

Daryn Pittman may run a World of Outlaws schedule, but it was the National Sprint League that was the sanctioning body at the 21st Front Row Challenge last night at the Southern Iowa Speedway in Oskaloosa and he took home the $21,000 winner’s share beating the field by over four seconds.

Heading into the World of Outlaws stop at the Knoxville Raceway Saturday night, Brad Sweet already had a good week. He finished third at the Outlaws stop Friday night in Jackson, Minnesota…and found out that his sister Katelyn, who dates NASCAR Driver Kyle Larson are expecting a baby in December. So the future “Uncle Brad” decided to drive away from everyone last night and win his first Outlaws race at the Knoxville Raceway. Sweet was never challenged in the 25 laps race that went green/white/checkered. Terry McCarl was second place while Shane Stewart, driving a car owned by Larson finished third. Justin Henderson won the 360 race. Yesterday, the AMA Pro Flat Track Motorcycles ran and Kyle Johnson won the Pro Singles while Kenny Coolbeth, Jr. won the Pro Grand National race.

It was only the first night of the 23rd Annual Arnold Motor Supply 360 Nationals, but Danny Lasoski and Kyle Larson put on a race for the ages as Lasoski claimed night one by beating Larson to the line by less than half a car length as the two drivers traded the lead four times on the final lap.

Score one for the home team, Mark Dobmeier passed World of Outlaws current points leader Jason Meyers midway through last night A-Main and sailed to victory in the second night of the 51st Annual Goodyear Knoxville Nationals.
